Areas of Focus
Specific Challenges I Can Address
Are you preparing to get pregnant?
Having a hard time getting pregnant?
Maybe just getting off of birth control to start trying?
- Did you know that being on the birth control pill may have been inhibiting your ability to conceive?
- Did you know that it takes over 2 months to produce sperm?
- Did you know that each follicle has to mature before the egg is released?
I am here to support your ability to conceive and gestate a healthy child. I look at the couple as a whole unit in the process of creating a baby.
I start with the history of both partners and move into lifestyle, lab testing, and treatment in order to increase the chances of a healthy conception, implantation, and pregnancy.
I have cultivated knowledge over the years working with patients and combined it with my expertise as a naturopathic doctor and midwife, woman with her own fertility struggles, and my commitment to continuing education.
Did you know that being on the birth control pill may have been inhibiting your ability to conceive? Did you know that it takes over 2 months to produce sperm? Did you know that each follicle has to mature before the egg is released?
There are many ways that we can support healthy sperm and eggs. I recommend preparing to conceive for 4 months before trying to make a baby.

Have you suffered the loss of your future child or many?
Are you just not feeling quite the same since the miscarriage?
Dealing with fatigue? Headaches? Grief?
Miscarriage is near and dear to my heart. I have personally had three miscarriages. They were all different and all difficult. What I realized from my own experience and my numerous patients who have been through this loss is that hospitals and providers often overlook many of the negative side effects that can come along with miscarriage. I am here to support you and help you get your life back after a miscarriage.
Here is a picture of me when I was having my second miscarriage:
This is what our society expects of women who are losing their baby:
- Smile
- Act like everything is normal
- Move on
- Focus on the positive like I heard from someone with good intentions that day, “at least you know you can have a baby”
I am here to support you in shifting society’s view of miscarriage. I have helped patients through heartbreak, anemia, inability to conceive again, and post-pregnancy thyroid conditions. The most important part of working with miscarriage has been working with my patients to make sure they know that their body did not fail them. And, that it is okay and healthy to talk about their loss.

Are you dealing with mood swings?
Are you sick of monthly symptoms of PMS?
Ready to figure out why you’re dealing with acne, weight gain, and unwanted hair growth?
Our hormones are responsible for so many unwanted symptoms when they are out of balance. Most women deal with at least one unwanted hormonal symptom.
Depending on the individual and their symptoms, we can use very gentle methods or more complex modalities to balance hormones.
I start with educating each person about the harmful effects of everyday products and how they disrupt our hormones. Then we delve into food and alcohols influence on our hormones. And finally after discussing the symptoms associated with the hormonal symptoms, we determine if we need labs and how we can start treatment.
Part of our work together is determining what makes the most sense for the individual. I never want my plan to INCREASE the stress load. So for one woman we may try seed cycling and lifestyle changes, whereas another woman may find herself cutting out any guesswork by ordering labs and using botanical formulas.
There is no one answer. Our work together helps determine what the answer is for you!

Fatigue
Mood
Do you feel wound up all the time?
Are you fatigued all day until it’s actually time to fall asleep?
Are you just not feeling energetic but you can’t put your finger on why?
Fatigue, I can honestly tell you that most adults that I treat list this symptom. And, as much as I wish there was one good answer, there are so many reasons fatigue can be an issue.
- Overwhelm and excess stress
- Thyroid dysregulation
- Insomnia
- Blood sugar instability
- Hidden viral infections
- Unidentified autoimmune disease
- And, on and on and on
Together, we identify and treat the cause of fatigue. For one person this may mean optimizing sleep by changing patterns and adding exercise, while another person may require labs to uncover immune dysregulation, infections, and endocrine imbalance.
Using naturopathic medicine, we restore your vitality and wellness bringing you back to the life of energy and joy you once knew.

Mood
Are you tired of not knowing when you may break into a rage, tears, the blues, or never-ending rumination?
Mood imbalance can be a real downer, no joke. You and I can work together to determine why mood has become an issue. Sometimes it may be a matter of hormones, nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities (histamine, oxalates, salicylates), or maybe something more significant like brain inflammation.
Just like with every appointment, we start with you – your history – your symptoms – your goals – and then we work together to identify and treat the cause.
I have successfully helped hundreds of adults and children manage their mood, not with medications, but by treating the person in front of me.
